Chapter 41

Hearing Zhao Shuo say this, Jing Qingyi, Jing Busu, and Jing Bulie all showed expressions of being moved, never having expected that Zhao Shuo would trust them so much. Jing Qingyi reached out and patted Zhao Shuo, saying, "Zhao Shuo, don't worry. Even if someone offered me a mountain of gold, I wouldn't reveal anything about you."

Jing Busu and Jing Bulie also said with excitement, "Boss, don't worry. We brothers would rather die than betray you."

Zhao Shuo chuckled. Jing Qingyi was really obsessed with money; even on the path of cultivation, his nature remained unchanged. As for Jing Busu and Jing Bulie, their personalities were similar to Zhao Feng's, so there was no need to worry about them.

Su Xiu said, "I don't mean anything else; I just want you to understand the importance of that extraordinary treasure. Otherwise, if outsiders find out, even the Dao Lord would be tempted."

"Really? The Dao Lord? Such an existence would also snatch things?"

Zhao Feng was clearly shaken by Su Xiu's words. Hearing this, Su Xiu smiled bitterly and said, "Feng'er, let alone the Dao Lord, even the supreme beings would be tempted."

Only then did everyone feel immense pressure.

Seeing everyone's cautious and suppressed expressions, Zhao Shuo couldn't help but laugh, "Don't worry, as long as we don't say anything, even if I use it, others will only think it's a treasure that can absorb and contain things. Not many people will think too much about it."

While speaking, Zhao Shuo collected a few more corpses. Each of these corpses could only refine a few years of magical power, which was barely useful to Zhao Shuo.

Looking at the distant sea, thinking about the dozens of three-eyed giant sturgeons' corpses sinking into the sea, Zhao Shuo felt a pang of pain. If he could collect these three-eyed giant sturgeons' corpses, refining them would provide him with at least a thousand years of magical power.

A thousand years of magical power, how long would it take to accumulate that much?

Seeing Zhao Shuo lost in thought, Zhao Luan said, "Second Brother, you're not thinking about those three-eyed giant sturgeons, are you?"

Zhao Shuo smiled bitterly and said, "I can only think about it. I don't have the courage to think about those three-eyed giant sturgeons; it would be courting death."

Hearing Zhao Shuo say this, Su Xiu sighed with relief, "It's good that you understand. I was really afraid you would act recklessly and provoke those three-eyed giant sturgeons."

Zhao Shuo smiled, "Mother, don't worry. I know what's important and won't risk my life."

Su Xiu nodded and looked at the sea stained red with blood, "Let's go back."

Zhao Shuo's eyes twinkled, "Mother, you take Big Brother and Little Sister back first. I want to collect a few more corpses. Such opportunities are rare."

After some thought, Su Xiu said, "Alright, but be careful. Qingyi, keep an eye on Shuo, don't let him do anything reckless!"

Jing Qingyi said, "Old Lady, rest assured, Qingyi understands."

Zhao Feng and Zhao Luan wanted to stay, but if they did, they wouldn't be able to stay by Su Xiu's side. Zhao Luan had been separated from Su Xiu for one or two months and wanted to spend time with her.

Watching Su Xiu and the others leave, Zhao Shuo sighed with relief. Jing Qingyi said, "Zhao Shuo, you didn't persuade the old lady to leave just to think about those three-eyed giant sturgeons, did you?"

Zhao Shuo said, "I just want to see if there's a chance to get one of those three-eyed giant sturgeons. If I could refine it into a spirit body, it would be incredibly powerful."

Hearing this, even Jing Qingyi and the others couldn't help but show signs of being tempted. A three-eyed giant sturgeon was no less powerful than a golden-winged great roc. If they could really get one, the future three-eyed giant sturgeon dharma body would definitely be an extremely powerful dharma body.

Seeing the tempted expressions of Jing Qingyi and the others, Zhao Shuo smiled and said, "The three-eyed giant sturgeon is a powerful aquatic beast with a strong territorial sense. We shouldn't have too much hope."

Holding the Water-Repelling Pearl, Zhao Shuo disappeared into the calm sea. As for Jing Qingyi and the others, Zhao Shuo took them into the Zhou Tian Ruyi Purple Light Pagoda. Although this was the territory of the three-eyed giant sturgeon, it didn't mean there were no other powerful beasts. With their strength, they could easily lose their lives if they weren't careful. Zhao Shuo didn't want to see that happen.

The Water-Repelling Pearl was indeed a treasure. The surrounding seawater was forced apart, as if an invisible shield was protecting Zhao Shuo. As he descended deeper into the sea, the surroundings gradually became darker.

However, this wasn't much of a problem for Zhao Shuo. After all, he was now at the Core Formation stage and had the ability to see in the dark, though the distance he could see in the sea wasn't very far.

After descending for a long time, many strange and exotic sea creatures appeared before Zhao Shuo's eyes, truly broadening his horizons. Even Jing Qingyi and the others in the Zhou Tian Ruyi Purple Light Pagoda were amazed.

The underwater world wasn't as lonely and dark as one might think. At least, at this moment, Zhao Shuo saw a mountain range glowing brightly, with countless lights shining from the mountains, illuminating the surrounding tens of miles of the seabed.

Zhao Shuo couldn't help but exclaim, "No way, this... this is actually a mountain covered in pearls."

Seeing this through the Zhou Tian Ruyi Purple Light Pagoda, Jing Qingyi had already lost his composure, his face filled with excitement, and he kept saying, "We're rich, we're rich, countless pearls, as big as fists, as big as millstones, wow, I'm going to die..."

Zhao Shuo didn't pay attention to the frenzied Jing Qingyi. After a long while, he finally calmed down and looked at the mountain covered in pearls from a distance. Countless pearls grew between large shells, which opened and closed, their light flickering, almost blinding.

What surprised Zhao Shuo was at the top of the mountain, where there was a huge pearl shell, about ten miles in diameter, with dozens of pearls, each several meters in diameter, emitting dazzling light. If that was all, it wouldn't be a problem, but when he saw the huge pearl shell, a sense of danger suddenly arose in his heart.

Just as Zhao Shuo was trying to figure out where the sense of danger was coming from, a huge sea snake with three heads lunged at the pearl shell.

Zhao Shuo was puzzled. Could the sea snake be trying to swallow the pearls? But at that moment, three smooth and round pearls suddenly flew out and hit the three heads of the three-headed sea snake.

Zhao Shuo thought the pearls wouldn't hurt the three-headed sea snake, but to his surprise, the three-headed sea snake opened its mouth, and the three heads simultaneously spewed out fire, ice, and poison, trying to block the pearls.

Pang, pang, pang, in an instant, the three heads of the three-headed sea snake were shattered by the three large pearls, and the once lively three-headed sea snake lost its life.

Seeing the three-headed sea snake bleeding profusely, Zhao Shuo couldn't help but want to collect its corpse. If he refined it, it would at least contribute several decades of magical power.
